Abstract

Disclosed is an external acceleration system for a biological denitrification process during wastewater treatment, including a biological denitrification mechanism, a denitrification acceleration mechanism, and a water circulation mechanism, where the biological denitrification mechanism includes a biological denitrification tank, a three-way valve, a wastewater assembly, and a water inlet pipe; the denitrification acceleration mechanism includes a denitrification accelerator and an assembly for enhancing the sulfur disproportionation reaction; the water circulation mechanism includes a first water delivery pump, a first water delivery pipe, a second water delivery pipe, and a second water delivery pump. The external acceleration system for a biological denitrification process during wastewater treatment spatially and temporally separates the sulfur disproportionation reaction process from the biological denitrification process so that the two processes do not interfere with each other and mutually promote the denitrification effect, which is beneficial to ensure the high efficiency and stability of the denitrification effect. The independently provided denitrification accelerator releases the coupling of the sulfur disproportionation reaction and the autotrophic denitrification reaction in the related art and has a high adaptability to various denitrification systems.
